Pre-Game Buzz: What to Watch For
Philly’s offense ranks top-5 in yards per game (375+), fueled by A.J. Brown’s deep threats and Saquon Barkley’s ground pound. But after that Bears blip, expect a defensive rebound from Vic Fangio’s unit against Herbert’s 3,200+ passing yards. Chargers, riding a three-game heater, boast Khalil Mack’s sack spree—could this be the upset that shakes the playoff picture?
Oddsmakers at DraftKings peg the Eagles as 3-point favorites in a projected 28-24 thriller. Tickets via Ticketmaster start at $200—prime for the star-studded SoFi scene. Monitor injury wires on NFL.com; DeVonta Smith’s status could swing the script.
